@@its_jo5hu472 Nahhh, that's not my concern. For me, my concern is I just think that when people are growing up, they start to forget the things when they are young, and if you forgotten it, obviously it has an effects on your behavior!!! And I hate it! And I am very confident that's one of the culprit of what's happening in the past and present! 😤😤😤😠
@@DiscoverConnection This is what I like most about you and your activities. You really care about people, you do it sincerely and not just to make a video. Meeting people really not on camera after these videos is very cool, it underlines how important it is to you.
Asking to play a game of uno seems kinda genius to me, it shifts the focus half on the game and half on you, which kind of eases the pressure of having to keep the conversation alive, meeting people through playing games seems like a great idea.
I remember girls playing uno at a bar and I was really shy have anxiety I forced myself to ask if I could join and they said sure . I see actually that our fears stop us from asking or joining people and have a good time ❤ sorry for my broken English
You guys were super non awkward as much as it likely felt awkward. And everyone was so nice it looked like you could have been awkward AF and they’d still love ya! Enjoy Austin!!
Bro y’all are the reason I ain’t shy anymore. After watching your vids I could talk to anyone no problem. Before I couldn’t even talk to a girl but now I can engage in a conversation and it’s really helped. Thank you to you and your friends for showing what I thought was impossible was possible.
I've never really been shy but always sort of waited for what I thought was a socially appropriate situation to talk to people but after watching his content I've realized that even if you will get rejected sometimes you can usually just walk right up and start chatting with people. The one where we got the girl to come to a party after knocking on her door was absolutely wild. Definitelly made me realize it's still worth it to try even in the randomesy situations.
What you guys are doing here is beautiful. Not just the idea of it but the fact that you're specifically trying to show anyone you can in this isolated world that it's possible to just approach people! The fact that you show you're still anxious to do it too, really, it's a wonderful thing you're doing here. This world needs people like you, perhaps more than most anything else.
wow the chess guy was impressive! who would have thought a random dude at a paddle board station would turn into a conversation on Wittgenstein and Kant.
There are lots of smart liberal arts majors working as bus drivers, I've noticed. When you study something that's harder to get a job with, sometimes you just need to put food on the table. I also remember a Wal-Mart cashier using the word "plethora" as I checked out. Never underestimate any person you see working any job.
I'm gonna be honest, every time a stranger walked up to me and asked my name and shaked hands, I always get immediately suspicious. Because all the time they're either trying to sell me something or just straight up ask for money. I would never trust anyone to not have ulterior motives if they ask my phone number or invite me to their house for 'events'.
True, also as a woman you are more suspicious on people's intent in general. I like talking to strangers though but in controlled environment. I love hostels for that, you can approach people and chat to them so easily and the next thing you know, you have new friends and you end up doing things in a new city with them the next day.
Lol. This is how you miss opportunities though! They are trying to show you! I understand keeping yourself safe. I met my husband through a random friend of his. We were in the same Facebook photos as each other for months at concerts, but had never met, & were only 2 feet from one another. I asked his friends name & we connected (platonically). He introduced me to all his friends on like the first day hanging out, my husband being one of them, many years later on. If I hadn’t reached out to the random guy tagged in the same photos as me to become friends, I may have never met my guy! Just a happy way of saying, reach out if you have the feeling. “Seeking discomfort” doesn’t mean “ignore danger”. You’ll sense the difference. Good luck on branching out 😊
My boyfriend and I moved to Austin a little over a year ago and it has been pretty hard to make friends as adults. This has given me so much hope! Thank you for sharing! :)
The difference and progress between the previous video and this video is massive. Once you quit trying to prepare what you're going to say to a stranger, the easier it is. But it isn't always easy. The people you joined most likely wouldn't have the stomach to do what you guys did in this video, so massive props. Love this content.
As someone that had severe social anxiety growing up, this is mind blowing, yet I know it shouldnt be, as this is all it really takes. Great Inspiring video.
@@pinksugaar I'm not any more. Already sured the social anxiety. But I beleive social anxiety evolved for some as an instinct to worry that others will judge, since thru history, someone in a tribe could get kicked out, and that would have often meant death
I just discovered your channel. I'm from spain, and specially in the south (andalucia, more specifically Cadiz) people are EXTREMELY approachable. You would never expect a weird look if you talk to a stranger. I think they are a model in terms of fighting this isolation culture.
This is so wholesome. As someone with severe overthinking and anxiety this video makes me happy. I hope people can learn from it. I made a goal to ask 2 girls out and make 2 friends this month for college. So far I asked for 1 friends Instagram but still need to do the other 3 goals. Wish me luck.
Honestly these videos mean a lot to me. I’m moving to a brand new area in a week, and it really does give me the confidence to go up to people and hopefully make some good friends! Edit: I completely neglected to update this for a while but yes I have met some very friendly people, to those who have asked. The city I live in has a bit of a reputation for being friendly which makes life easier, but either way, it goes to show that it is possible :) Edit 2: The city is Köln, Germany. I’m finding it doable even with a language barrier so theoretically it should be even easier with a common language
I love your content! Really helps restore faith in humanity! Totally contradicts most of what you see online where everyone is so cold to strangers. Thank you for what you do, and putting good vibes into the universe!
I love these videos, partly because I can relate. I've randomly joined people at parties, in parks, at events and more. It's such a great way to connect with people.
This is so wholesome and genuine compared to all the other stuff and "pranksters" on TH-cam. Thanks for the good vibes also to the guys in the video you guys rock
I've been in Austin my whole life but am 25 and just struggling in every aspect here now. It's awesome to see y'all enjoying Zilker, making friends, and spreading positivity, and the courage to make friends like that is inspiring. I like to go to zilker with my pup and always admire the many different groups participating in various activities but have never felt confident enough to approach. I am planning to relocate soon and am excited to try to take some similar approaches in a new city as I really have no connections to meet people through. Lovely content as always, keep it up!
Great concept! The crazy stuff in other continents is fun too, but i think it's these "simple" things that anyone can do, that really show people how easy just asking can be :) keep it up
You guys are the goats. I myself am a very introverted person and when i watch yall content gives me power and courage to be more social. Keep doing your thing ❤
I just rediscovered your channel and want to say thank you. I loved the unique ways that you were able to meet people and it is totally inspiring to me as I'm super introverted and shy. I think this video gave me the boost I needed to go outside and meet some new people. Thank you, seriously. Your videos are life changing. Please don't stop what you're doing.
This makes me so happy. Truly the purpose of being human is to connect and yet it’s one the scariest things to do at times! Love that you smile in the face of fear ❤️
I absolutely love how you guys keep in touch with the people in your videos, you're actually out here making friends and getting to show people how easy that can be if they just put themselves out there a bit more, keep up the great stuff (Found ya from Sunnyv2 new video)
This is giving me the confidance to actually maybe try and do something like that. I am not a very social person although I want to be. I am currently in high school so I don't really have many opportunities to meet new people but when I have I might try to approach them and initiate a conversation. Thank you for making this content!!
Awesome video as always!🤩But am I the only one who was kind of dissapointed that Christian didn't go to the chess guy instead of Brad as he is also called Christian!😅That would have been so iconic and funny that when they introduce each other they would learn that they both have the same name!😂That would be soo good and such a coincidence!😆
I love watching these videos. I moved to a new state about a year ago and I have struggled meeting new people. Seeing your videos really motivates me to get out there and just find people
Man, this is really enlightning on how it is to approach people and make friends. I loved how you showed the chess board from above as the game progressed!
Wow. Just thank you. It’s almost Christmas and I found your channel. Instead of spending it shopping I get to spend it with you. Seriously, I believe in what you’re doing so much.
Hey Brad and Christian! This was singularly one of the best pieces of content that I have seen all year. Christian is a great addition to your channel and comes across as just a super nice guy like yourself. Love how you approached everyone and everyone you encountered was just super nice. Seems like Austin is a very friendly place from what you shared. This content definitely is one where your audience feels great after watching. It was just seamless and positive with each person or group you encountered. Can't wait to see more quality content from you!!! You both have great energy together and compliment each other working as a team. I would also love to see more content as well with this exact same scenario!!
Jeez, you guys are nailing it. Keep up the great work, each video is consistently awesome. Don't know can I have enough guts and do something like that in my country but it's definitely motivating. Appreciate your message to the world, love! ❤
Really enjoy these videos, takes a lot to put yourself out there now and days cause so many people are completely closed off, good on you for putting yourself out there for new experiences and meeting people brother.
This is actually so wholesome! After seeing videos of people approaching girls and hitting on them and trying to get their numbers, its just so cool to see you guys out here just genuinly making friends
I love this channel so much, I am chronically socially isolated and have been for a number of years due to mental and chronic illness and so this channel means a lot. It's so wholesome seeing you guys reach out to people and I am also a person who will push myself to do scary things, because I'm alone a lot of the time, I will go up to strangers (like you did in the park) and join their games.
I always find it interesting in how meeting new people and having a conversation with them can actually help you gain knowledge or learn something you didn't know.
I want to add this for people who have social anxiety/are shy: a lot of these guys' sucess henches on their body language and the way they speak. Being non threatening (especially with women) in these areas helps a lot. Being open, kind and accepting of a "no" makes such a big difference
Brad, really glad to see you back and consistent. Both of your hitchhiking series touched me and helped me heal some trust wounds. You're doing great work! Christian is a great edition. Hope he becomes a more permanent installation. Keep up the grind and never give up, you're a making an impact in the world!
I love the idea of creating a team like Yes Theory has but just a content house full of amazing positivity and connections! This is great! You are a big inspiration to me Brad, keep up the great work!
I don't want to be 'that' guy but I'd really love for a black or a brown person to try this. I'm pretty sure most people would still be kind but it'd be fun to see if the interactions are different in any way if at all.
I genuinely love making connections with others and have always been the one to put myself out there in my group of friends. Just as much as they have always given me crap for being able to just talk to a stranger, I give them crap for not being able too. Too me it's fascinating to think about how easy it is to connect with someone even off the tiniest gestures like, "hey, I love your shirt. Where'd you get it?" Even if you don't make a friend, you're still leaving that individual with something to feel happy about. There's literally nothing to lose and quite possibly everything to gain from making friends. I love what you guys are doing and I hope your channel blows up in popularity! 🤷🏽♂️ Just my two scents.
The chess dude was amazing. Im taking a philosophy class this semester and its one of my favorite because we talk about similar things to what he was mentioning!
WOW you are from Kingston?? No way..... I've been enjoying your videos for quite some time and I find it cool you are from my hometown. Nice work and congrats on all your success.
Im here ❤ I suffer from social anxiety I get it but sometimes like I met two girls came to see me cause they saw me alone in the club and bought be a shot and were like come dance with us ❤
I go freshwater fishing all the time. You wouldn't believe the nice people I've met who asked to join me, and me seeing someone fishing alone asking them if they want to tag along with me. Made many friends at local lakes, and a few of us get together all the time for a day of fishing.
I'm from Canada and when Brad mentioned he's from Kingston and the guy said "kind of by Toronto" made me wheeze because it's actually more closer to Ottawa than Toronto! (Kingston is about 3 hours away from TO). I do have to say, Great video! Nice to see fellow Canadians out and about making videos like this :)
I lived in Austin for 6 years and moved to the Houston area in 2020 due to Covid-related circumstances. I miss the Austin vibe so much and watching your videos has made me want to move back. Thank you guys for encouraging everyone to put themselves out there and forge new connections.
This has got to be my favorite TH-cam channel! Not only is it entertaining to watch but it inspire people to go out in public and make new friends. Keep up the great content!❤
I wanna be more like him. I have horrible anxiety and I’m so introverted that it’s crazy and this inspires me thank you for your videos. New subscriber ❤
I got anxiety just watching 😂 man you guys have so much guts to do this but it’s definitely inspiring me to try it out. The only friends I have are from school and as an adult it’s definitely harder to make friends when your not forced to be surrounded by people anymore like school
And another great content from Discover connection! I love your videos. I would certainly go fishing with the tattoo artist and play chess with chess guy, they are chill af 😄👍

I don't want to be 'that' guy but I'd really love for a black or a brown person to try this. I'm pretty sure most people would still be kind but it'd be fun to see if the interactions are different in any way if at all.
Depends on the area. Try this in thousand oaks where I live while being black, someone is gonna call the cops on you or something.
@@TheGreatestJediOfAllTimeprobably not. Try it
I love how welcoming they all were! These videos always restore my faith in humanity, it makes my day! Keep up the good work :)
These kind of videos genuinely make my day. keep it up and come to Aotearoa sometime
I genuinely love making connections with others and have always been the one to put myself out there in my group of friends. Just as much as they have always given me crap for being able to just talk to a stranger, I give them crap for not being able too. Too me it's fascinating to think about how easy it is to connect with someone even off the tiniest gestures like, "hey, I love your shirt. Where'd you get it?" Even if you don't make a friend, you're still leaving that individual with something to feel happy about. There's literally nothing to lose and quite possibly everything to gain from making friends. I love what you guys are doing and I hope your channel blows up in popularity! 🤷🏽♂️ Just my two scents.
The chess dude was amazing. Im taking a philosophy class this semester and its one of my favorite because we talk about similar things to what he was mentioning!
appreciate seeing you let them know its being recorded. I have felt conflucted with your channel until I saw that. Thank you
This was freaking awesome. I need to try this. You guys rocked it and those people were all super cool!
WOW you are from Kingston?? No way..... I've been enjoying your videos for quite some time and I find it cool you are from my hometown. Nice work and congrats on all your success.
Im obly about 3 hours north of Kingston in Renfrew. Pretty crazy and explains alot learning he's from our area. Wholesome as it gets
SunnyV2 brought me here and im so glad, im binging all your vids!
no way dude you're from Kingston? Me too! that's crazy I've been watching for awhile!
What a wicked idea! I wish I didn't have such bad social anxiety, otherwise I'd probably have more friends lol
I know right my social anxiety Too
Well the who idea of this is that you can try this even with anxiety
Im here ❤ I suffer from social anxiety I get it but sometimes like I met two girls came to see me cause they saw me alone in the club and bought be a shot and were like come dance with us ❤
I go freshwater fishing all the time. You wouldn't believe the nice people I've met who asked to join me, and me seeing someone fishing alone asking them if they want to tag along with me. Made many friends at local lakes, and a few of us get together all the time for a day of fishing.
I'm from Canada and when Brad mentioned he's from Kingston and the guy said "kind of by Toronto" made me wheeze because it's actually more closer to Ottawa than Toronto! (Kingston is about 3 hours away from TO). I do have to say, Great video! Nice to see fellow Canadians out and about making videos like this :)
There is no way you guys are only at 600k subscribers! I can so see your channel blowing up in the near future
This was an awesome episode! Thanks for showing up what is possible ❤
I lived in Austin for 6 years and moved to the Houston area in 2020 due to Covid-related circumstances. I miss the Austin vibe so much and watching your videos has made me want to move back. Thank you guys for encouraging everyone to put themselves out there and forge new connections.
This has got to be my favorite TH-cam channel! Not only is it entertaining to watch but it inspire people to go out in public and make new friends. Keep up the great content!❤
That’s the goal ❤️
I wanna be more like him. I have horrible anxiety and I’m so introverted that it’s crazy and this inspires me thank you for your videos. New subscriber ❤
"Green! Blue. Malarckey. Are you serious!?"
... editing was on point!
I got anxiety just watching 😂 man you guys have so much guts to do this but it’s definitely inspiring me to try it out. The only friends I have are from school and as an adult it’s definitely harder to make friends when your not forced to be surrounded by people anymore like school
“I’m an idiot”.
“No your not, you’re just Canadian”
😂😂 I can’t believe he said that!
This is absolutely quality! Great examples of how easy it can be to interact with others! 💪👏👊
For someone who has crippling social anxiety, I was nervous to even click on this. I’m glad I did. Thank you.
This is the best content on youtube keep going brother. Love from vancouver
Confidence. That's what I teach my kids and students. Don't be overprotective. Let them take risks and encourage them.
And another great content from Discover connection! I love your videos. I would certainly go fishing with the tattoo artist and play chess with chess guy, they are chill af 😄👍
That’s the spirit guys. Can relate to all of that so much. Done it before and am always afraid to do it time and time again
Love, love, Love your concept and videos!!!!!!!!
It always makes my day when i see an upload on this channel. lova to y'all
❤️
I love this channel so much, found yall yesterday and can't get enough of it. Absolutely perfect I must say. :)
Even though you guys might felt introverted and unsocial to make these kind of videos, but you guys are one of the most extroverted group of people
I love your videos! I came across your account yesterday and can’t stop watching- the videos really brighten my mood with all their positivity 😊
Liam and shaan sound like great people!
